I assume that the PS5 Pro is great for its target audience: people who care about getting the best possible graphics on a console. They bought it, they tried it, they loved it, and they praised it. The issue with the PS5 Pro is that not everyone fits into that niche. For people who are not playing on giant 4K TVs, what is the benefit? What does it provide that a regular PS5 (or even a PS4) does not? Sony has not provided an answer, from what I have seen.

Fuck dammit. The thieves are foreign born. You know that some people are going to home in on that and use it as proof that we need to reduce immigration and increase deportations, hopefully it will not be anyone too influential.
I guess he really wants to be the next head coach. He is very dutifully following the example of Jason Kidd.
I am sure they will. At least one third party accessory vendor has leaked that they are manufacturing a Switch 2 Mouse Grip (which is how the joycon mouse rumor started in the first place).
The telling thing is that Nintendo is not planning to reduce the price of the Switch. Hopefully they will drop the price when the Switch 2 comes out, or we may have different definitions of "affordable".
The Switch currently sells for $300 and the OLED. In order to keep selling, those systems need to be significantly cheaper than the backwards compatible Switch 2, which would mean that the Switch 2 has to be sold for at least $400 (if not $450).
I would not be sure that Switch 2 will improve the performance of Switch games. Nintendo has shown that they care about perfect backwards compatibility (putting last gen chips into systems, allegedly testing the hell out of their emulators whenever they add a ROM to Switch Online). I could see the Switch 2 being limited to Switch 1 performance when in backwards compatibility mode to remove the risk of breaking some badly coded game.
I assume that the system will still be very hard to get on release. Nintendo is going to hoard systems until November and flood the market until December. If you or I cannot get the system on release day, we will complain to other fans, but we will keep looking until we find one or break down and pay scalper prices.
On the other hand, parents will want to go to Walmart at 3 PM on Black Friday and grab a system. If they don't find one, they will be super mad that they have to explain to little Timmy that he is not getting a new Nintendo for Christmas. It will make the news.
What I would like to see is Nintendo limiting how much their resale partners can bundle with the system. For a while with the Switch, you could find one in stores… assuming you also buy a GameStop carrying case, a GameStop controller, a set of gold audio cables, and 3 shovelware games for a premium price.
You are almost 2000 years old? Wow, how do you keep up with the fashion century to century?
Some team would still trade good pieces for him in hope of hanging up a banner and convincing him to stay. The Raptors tried to give Kawhi Stockholm Syndrome.
Kyrie was a known asshole and diva, and the Mavs had no problem trading for him. The only way this makes sense is if tomorrow we find out Luka was point shaving.

I still use it as a contrast to thematic games. In a thematic game, the rules and mechanisms are in service of presenting a theme. In a euro, there is a strong emphasis on clean rules and focused mechanisms even if they are only tangentially related to the theme they are trying to represent.
